grave cases, of murder or arson. it pro.

The capture of Graves, the murderer,
after his successful escape from the State,
Is an instance which goes to show how
difficult it is for such criminal to escape
detection. His cunning availed to get
him to California, but it was not sufficient
to keep the eye of justice from following
him to his distant and fancied safe retreat
Murderers are safe nowhere. Their crime
is pretty sure to find them out. Since the
days of telegraphs and railroads there is no
place so distant or secluded that will serve
10 conceal them from the officers of the
law. Graves will be brought home to
end his days in the State pententiary.
